From what I understand, a big part of what’s happening with Boeing, is that Boeing is run by Business person who want to maximize return of stock-owner rather than by people wanting to make a good product. The gained flexibility/nicer budget from massive sub-contracting led to “loss of knowledge”, and cutting-down quality control steps which “never catch anything” led to issue being missed-out.
Do you think that MBA program will take this reality into account ? or would they keep focusing on maximizing short-term profit even if it jeopardize the company’s future ?

Sadly you see this at all levels of companies.
I’ve seen it in IT for 30+ years (Google is a great example): new projects/changes make you visible to upper management, but if you prevent failures/outages no one cares.
Now, have an actual outage and fix it, you’re a hero.
So, don’t prevent outages, but note the issues privately, develop mitigation plans, so when the outage occurs you’re the hero. That’s the lesson anyway.
